On March 28, 2026, His Holiness Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, Khalifatul-Masih V (may Allah be his Helper) held a meeting in Islamabad with members of Nasiratul Ahmadiyya (Ahmadiyya Muslim Girls’ Association) and Lajna Ima’illah (Ahmadiyya Muslim Women’s Association) from Finland.
An attendee asked His Holiness (may Allah be his Helper) how non-Ahmadi women who show interest in discussions about Islam can be effectively guided toward understanding and accepting Ahmadiyyat. He replied:
“The key is to set an example. When you build good relationships and foster friendships, and you demonstrate the true teachings of Islam through your own conduct, that alone is sufficient. What is the essence of Tabligh (propagation of faith)? Tabligh means exhibiting your own example and conveying the teachings of Islam. When people see that you are practising the true teachings of Islam—whether they are non-Muslims or non-Ahmadi Muslims—they will notice your [good]conduct and your virtues. Gradually, they will be influenced and will understand that these people are on the right path. They will want to follow and associate with them, or at the very least, they will stop opposing them. …
“Allah has made clear that your role is to engage in Tabligh, to guide, to show the correct path, but it is Allah who guides hearts and enables people to accept Ahmadiyyat. That is not your duty. Every Ahmadi Muslim should simply demonstrate through their example that they embody the practical and true teachings of Islam. That alone is enough. This is real tabligh. It does not mean that we should measure success by how many Bai’ats are taken. Bai’at is taken according to Allah’s Will; it is He who instills faith in hearts. When He sees a sincere and virtuous nature, He will place the acceptance of Ahmadiyyat in that heart. If not, then it will not happen.”
